In this episode, Richard is once again joined by Dr. Antonia Dietman, who this time outlines research she has carried out into the benefits of mindfulness practice.
We know that mindfulness as a concept is sometimes presented as a panacea, but this isn't the case in Antonia's research, which used a rigorous methodology and is very realistic about the results achieved.
